Although there were some regrets, Lawson's enthusiasm for killing monsters was even higher, because he wanted to be able to get a handy piece of equipment as soon as possible, preferably a heavy weapon such as a mace or axe, so that he could fully use the barbarian's strong strength in this regard.

But Lawson soon found that his luck did not seem to be too good, and after more than an hour of walking and fighting in the stone wilderness, there were already a hundred and ten mobs killed by him, and the things that fell were only gold coins, potions, identification scrolls, town teleportation scrolls, stamina potions, keys, etc., except that there was no decent weapon.

Fortunately, he has a good mentality at this time, mainly to hone his melee skills, and by the way, he can upgrade whether he can play good equipment or not.

"Bang bang, bang, poof."

Lawson swung his shield to block the powerful arrows flying in front of him, and then rushed forward, and vigorously slammed into the small boss in front of him, the Bone Peeler, and the roaring demon, his skin hardened and slashed four times.

These four knives are all issued with heavy blows, and the first two knives are just simple damage, but the third knife triggers a critical hit, which directly doubles the damage, plus Lawson is the critical part of the neck of the attack, and the damage is higher.

By the time of the fourth slash, the Ignore Defense effect was triggered once again, and the machete that Lawson brought from the Scarlet Biochemical World easily broke through the creature's hardened skin as if it were a hot knife slicing butter, directly cutting off its head.

As its corpse fell to the ground, a number of items suddenly fell out.

In addition to the healing potions and mana potions that could not be touched by lightning for 10,000 years, Lawson finally saw a coveted scepter, but it was now in an unrecognizable state, but judging from the font, it was undoubtedly blue.

Rosen immediately ripped open an identification scroll and slapped it, and when he saw its attributes, he immediately became happy.

"Jagged Witch's Scepter, One-handed Damage 7-12, Durability 45 out of 50, Required Strength Points: 25, Required Level: 4, Mace Level - Fast Attack Speed, +17% Enhanced Damage, 5% Hit Steal Life, +2 Fire Resistance (Paladin), +1 Sacrifice (Paladin), +50% Damage to the Undead."

After looking at the scepter, Lawson felt that it had come too timely, and it felt like someone was handing him a pillow when he was really sleepy.

This can't help but make him wonder again, whether his luck is good or bad?

Regardless of whether it was good or not, Lawson did not hesitate to replace the machete with this scepter, and waved it twice, only to feel that the weight was just right, very handy, and he could expect how comfortable it would be when he swung it and hit the monster's head.

Immediately, Rosen rushed into a gathering of monsters formed by Fallen Wizards, Fallen Demons, Blade Demons, Skeletons, and Zombies, and then waved his scepter and began to kill.

For a while, the sound of banging was endless, like the sound of ripe watermelons being burst by wooden sticks.

Lawson's judgment was right, it was too suitable to use a blunt weapon like a scepter to deliver heavy attacks, and even the critical strike rate was a little higher than before.

The only thing that makes Lawson a little unhappy is that the chance of monsters dropping items is still not very high, but fortunately there is a greedy suit, which greatly increases his chances and quantity of gold.

"Bang."

As he took out the last blue-skinned blade demon, Lawson let out a long sigh of relief and glanced around the corpses, feeling a little bit of the illusion of invincibility and loneliness.

"Boss, come and see, I've found something." Not far away, Elena waved her hand and called.

Rosen walked over and saw her standing beside a crumbling ruin that was only a corner of the wall, with a stone platform on which a moldy ancient book was placed.

Flipping through the book's tattered and moldy pages, Rosen barely made out a few lines of readable words from the remaining handwriting.

“…… So it had the intention of going to the countess, the woman who had wanted to use the blood of a virgin to rejuvenate and be buried alive...... And her castle soon crumbled into ruins due to all kinds of brutality, and a tall tower stood on top of the forgotten wilderness of the gods, like some kind of evil monument

The Countess's wealth is believed to have been divided among the clergy, although some of it remains untraced and is still buried around the decaying skeletons, which are silent witnesses to the inhumanity of the castle for the sole purpose......"

"You have a new quest: the Tower of Oblivion, a tower that can be found in the black wasteland far away from the Dark Forest."

"Upon completion of the mission, you will receive a reward: Merit +110, XP +200, Fame +30."

"Notes: You can uncover a long-hidden secret and get some surprises from it."

Rosen glanced at the main quest: Kane's Search in the quest screen, which also mentions the Dark Forest.

It was a mission he had received before, and it hadn't disappeared because he had changed careers.

Anyway, he was going to the Dark Forest, and with the idea of beating rabbits with grass, Rosen decided to stop by and solve the mission of this Forgotten Tower. He was also curious about what the so-called secret was, and wanted to see what kind of surprise he could get.

After passing through a meadow about seven or eight miles long, Rosen saw a boulder with many mysterious runes depicted on it, and a faint light shining faintly on it.

This is a temple of experience, which can be blessed by the temple once triggered, doubling the amount of experience gained in a short period of time.

Rosen walked around this temple and found that it was different from the experience temple he had encountered before, and there was no place to take it directly, so he secretly said that it was a pity and stepped forward to trigger it.

A flash of light flashed, and there was an extra golden rune on the top of Lawson's head, which was an experience enhancement BUFF. Before it disappears, Lawson will gain much more experience than usual in fighting monsters.

Rosen immediately slaughtered a group of starving dead in the distance, and waved his scepter with a crackle.

The Hungry Dead, skeletons and the like are all undead, as long as they are hit by the scepter, they have a 50% damage bonus, plus the high damage caused by Lawson's own heavy attacks and critical hits, etc., the average starving dead and skeletons are all hung with one hit.

Some of the stronger skeletons carried bone or wooden shields in their hands, and they could parry occasionally, but that was about it, as they were then crushed by Rosen's next blow.

"Huh."

Colorful light flashed, and the darkness around him seemed to be dispelled somewhat. This is naturally a credit to Elena.

Although Elena is only level 3 due to her low level, and the scope of her inner vision is not large, she is agile, constantly wandering around Lawson, and frequently releasing her inner vision to explore the surrounding environment, so as to make up for the lack of a small area covered by her inner vision.

Seeing that she was so dedicated, Rosen was very satisfied, and he was very face-saving and no longer used the inner vision himself.

"Goo."

With a strange cry, a strange bird surrounded by colorful light flew out of the wild grass that was half a person high.

The bird has very large wings, a black-brown color, and two huge claws underneath, and appears to be extremely good at fluttering and tearing. In addition, it has a long tail, like a scorpion tail and like the tail of a rattlesnake, which flutters in the wind when it flies, and even makes a hissing sound, which is very weird.

What really caught Rosen's attention was not its strange or even ugly appearance, let alone its strange croaking sound, but the disgusting stench emanating from its body.

Even though there were still twenty meters away, and Lawson was still upwind, he could still smell an indescribable rancid smell.

It's like taking all the stinks together and then fermenting them in the scorching sun for a long time, and it can make anyone with a normal sense of smell turn their back on the spot.

This is the stinking crow of the world of Diablo 2, who comes from hell and feeds on all kinds of corpses.

The lizards, vultures and other carrivores that Lawson had seen on TV and the Internet before could definitely only bow down to him.

"Bang."

Rosen didn't stupidly rush to fight him, but pulled out the Remington M870 from his backpack as he stepped back, and fired a single shot at it.

In fact, the deer bullet is quite effective when used to fight this kind of bird. Because the projectiles in the deer projectile are numerous and large, they spread out when they fly out, and the coverage area is relatively large, so that the foul-smelling crow has nowhere to escape.

It's just that Rosen's current basic long-range combat level is already very high, and with the rifle specialization he just obtained, this shot is naturally full of accuracy, and it directly hit the stinky crow.

The M870 is different from the Garand M1 that Lawson used before, because it has quite good attributes, especially the attack power, which is definitely much stronger than many bows and crossbows in Diablo 2, so when this one-headed bullet roared out and hit the stinky crow's body, the result can be imagined.

With a bang, crimson flesh splattered out, and the corpse of the foul-smelling crow flew seven or eight meters away and fell to the ground.

"Whoa."

Vali's eyes lit up, and he let out a series of excited cries as he rushed towards the corpse of the foul-smelling crow.

Lawson wanted to stop it, after all, the stinky crow was too smelly, but when he thought that Vali was not human after all, its taste must be very unique, so he immediately did not stop it.

So Vali swallowed the foul-smelling crow that had been blown half of its body directly by a single bullet, and seemed quite satisfied.

After eating, he spewed out a mouthful of fire, and the blood and flesh in his mouth were burned clean, and the stench disappeared immediately.

However, Wal-E seemed to be a little unsatisfied, raised his head, twitched his nose into the air, and then rushed towards the front right with a scream.

"Elena, come up." Rosen didn't plan to catch up with the running Vali on two legs, so he took out the half-track motorcycle, beckoned Elena to sit up, and rushed forward with the accelerator.
